Finicky Files

Ahhh those files that you know are on your computer but you just can not seem to find them. As long as you know when the files name, date edited or size you will be able to find it. In order to do so you need to go to Start and then My Documents. In XP a search button will be at the top of the My Documents window. Once clicked the search section will be brought up in the side of the My Documents window. From there you can type in whatever you want in order to find the file. In Vista once the My Documents window is opened the search bar will be at the top an from there you can type in whatever you want in order to find the file. If that does not work there is the advanced tab (at the bottom of the search column in XP and after a search in Vista) which will make your search more accurate. This will get those pesky files out of hiding.
